Hello guys,
Can you tell me which rom and kernel do you use? And that you have pretty good battery life and smoothness?
Thanks!
That's a wide open debatable question for the ages....
Its main factor is ur usage and settings (ie: notifications, display & governor)
It also will depend way to much on what Apps u add to a certain ROM since some Apps are battery hogs.
The other issue is how old ur battery is.... Original, new or off brand.
But from my experience...
Slim ROM with newest marmite kernel but use the basic download without "Google now" or other extras.
Good luck

Another possibility is to use a GB rom

I can easily touch 6h+ screenON on Carbon ROM... Brightness and background processes matters

I currently use my Nexus for social networking, Internet browsing and music and want to get the most out of my phone. I need a fast rom with good bat life. I am currently running cm9.1 after running cm10 and 9 and am still not too happy! Thanks in advance!

Currently on 9.1 fresh install, it's okay but bat drain is heavy with barely any app usage..

I've tring some diferent ROMs (all with JB) and I decide to use codename (3.4.1) with marmite (v4.4).
I think that this combo gets very well with battery and it goes fast and smooth. Also, I think that codename is very stable and it has a lot of options to personalize your phone.
I'm running androxide with marmite v.4.5. Great battery life and volume rocker wake was key for me to prevent the broken power button.

What could be better than stock? Seriously. Unless you're looking for more customizable Rom, you won't find better Rom than stock
Swyped on my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP with Franco Kernel, overclocked to 1.4GHz
Try having air kernel 4,4 on that cm9.1. You just won't regret

I have a crespo nexus s with stock jb 4.1.1 and I find its performance a bit laggy in some occasions, so I decided to try some custom ROM and I would like some help.
What I want
First of all it has to be as stable as possible because this is my daily driver.
I also want it to be as lightweight and fast as possible. Ram usage has to be minimal and I want it to be responsive enough so that I don't have to wait for the dialer to start every single time I want to make a call. I don't care about benchmark performance, just snappy navigation and performance in common tasks and web browsing.
Battery life should be at least on par with the stock ROM.
I want the features of the stock ROM in terms of apps.
I don't care about customization or extra features.
I want it to be jb based, or at least ICS.
What ROM do you think would suit me? I checked out cm, codename and slimbean. How do they compare?

I think if you want nearly stock, out of the three you looked at, slimbean is for you. Cna and cm are indeed awesome, but are packed with extras.

Rasbean, or stock with Marmite Kernel and Brainmasters tweaks!
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
I'd have to say first pick for you would be RasBean, secondly SlimRom and if you want another option and like dark colors then I would say BlackBean. Depending how much kernel control I would say Marmite or Matrix.
Personally I keep falling back on BlackBean and Marmite.
Hope this helps!
Flashed Rasbean with trinity kernel @ 1.44Ghz. It's like having a new phone. Thanks!

Good choice!
which is the best rom and kernel for battery? amongst gingerbread, ice cream sandwich and jellybean..
There is no real "best" for everyone. Your best bet will be to flash the ROM of your choice, based on your preferences, then play around with different kernels and settings, allowing each one to settle for a day or two minimum, until you find what you like and/or what works best for your use & device.

Strictly opinión on battery life:
Rasbeanjelly 11/6 + marmite for battery life.
Performance: rasbeanjelly 11/6 + matrix cfs 24

Its way better than JB4.2 I'm sure. But it depends on the ROM and kernel u choose too. I'm using paranoid 2.5 ATM and getting quite good backup.

Hello all, I am wanting to get a good battery life on my mobile. So if I use a marmite kernel with stock jb will I get a better battery life or marmite kernel with rasbeanjelly will give better battery life.
What combo among the two I mentioned you all suggest for good battery life.
Thank you for reading.
Regards
I think that kernels have very little impact on power consumption (except if they running undervolted, downclocked or are broken in some way). More important thing is the ROM and apps that you use on daily base.
Best battery consuming ROM from my exp is CM10 stable with stock kernel, but maybe with 15-20 mins of screen time more than stock at most. Best tip for conserving power on NS and JB is to switch off 3G, Google Now and Location service when you don't need it.

Thanks for replying. But isn't people facing issues with cm10?
Regards
Perhaps with 10.1, but 10 stable, or the latest 20122012 nightly was pretty stable. I had one issue only with it - auto brightness was somewhat jerky... That's only battery wise.
Fastest ROM for me is MDO by knzo, RasbeanJelly mod which I am using right now. 3 and a half hours of screen time is same as 3 hours and 15 minutes. Either way I need to charge it at the end of the day.

Depends on your requirements for phone usage:
-Gingerbread rom = battery last mosts, lowest battery drain, not very stylish, used for watching movies or gaming for it's around 200MB free Ram and long phone usage with Wifi.
Rom i recommend: GingerSnap from neko95's blog site.
-IceCreamSandwich: this one has a little less battery life and free ram, but it has better UI, greater app compatibility, It's something between Gingerbread and JellyBean.
Rom i recommend: IcySnap again by neko95.
-JellyBean: if it weren't for the big battery drain - expecially when on Wifi, I would choose this. You definitely need sdext script for its low free internal storage, will experience some stress when you need to do something fast but your phone start lagging as hell suddenly. Oh, wifi teathering has still some issues. Definitely not for gaming. But I'd still go with this if it weren't for the big battery drain.
Rom i recommend: CM10.1.6, get it from my thread "Jenkins" or search for "jenkins armv6" on google.
If it's for your GF why not stick with stock rom?

For GB, I experience OXYGEN by popdog is very smooth and fast for gaming in particular compared to Neko's GingerSnap. Of course, need comprise on UI.

Kitkat themed...why didn't you've said so in the beginning..
There is a Kitkat themed ROM based on latest stable JB, Link will be given in next edit.
Edit 1: All the ROMs for P500 have built-in kernel, you don't need to flash another kernel cos the build-in is probably the best for the ROM.
Edit 2: Here's the link .

LOL, I just going to say the same rom as MW, the themed kit kat 4.2. It has a all the features (specially the bluethooth working), and has kit kat experience. But battery is not as draining as you said, yesterday I went all the night with 5%. The wifi is the only battery killer, but otherwise not too much. I use the one power guard to save battery and is the heaven.
Well the Kitkat is based off CM10 and yes, CM10 has the biggest battery drain.
You wanted Kitkat themed alike and noting comes close as that ROM, still no-one said it would be perfect
If I were you, I would just get ICS ROM and get some Kitkat theme for homelaucher and theme manager. Satisfy both battery and kitkat UI
